Abstract

In this paper, we shall attempt fractal analysis of time series derived from two popular song types. Each type of song has its own notation, which is to be followed by an artist singing it. We found earlier that the fractal dimension (D)(D) calculated from a song is a good measure of the complexity of its notation. The purpose of the present study is to find whether, if the same song is sung by different performers, DD will vary, and how an individual’s performance varies when singing songs with the same notation and same wording. We shall employ nonlinear time series methods to calculate DD for different samples of the said two types to address this question.
